VALERIE. An hour later, it’s over and, as he predicted, the killer was indeed Beth’s brother. The very same guy he had said it would be, but before he could say anything cocky, my phone rings and I pick it up quickly. “Zaia! How are you?” I say, not missing the way Zade stiffens. “I’m great. You
Jai’s. A flare of pain rushes through me and I’m about to rush over and snatch it from his hand when he speaks. “This is him, isn’t it? The man I killed.” My eyes flash, pain and guilt coursing through me. “Yeah, it is. Forgotten what he looks like?” I ask coldly, snatching the picture from him,
VALERIE.Driving to the hospital, I feel empty. It’s my first day working there, but since that day I haven’t spoken to Zade and it’s insane how… bleak everything feels.There’s been a few times he’s been watching me, and I spotted him, but he simply would turn and walk away.Along with his silence
“Well, I’ll see you two later. I still have two hours of my shift left,” Ronda complains, stifling a yawn.“You have fun, and I think I’m going to head home. I’ll sleep well today.” I say. “Oh and, I’ve filled out the paperwork for patient in room 2, bed C. Please make sure she’s checked up on every
I almost smile, taking out the carton to heat it up, only to find that the container is still hot. I place the bag down, tempted to go question him why he left it, but am I ready to see him again?It’s late too… but he’s obviously awake since the container is hot.Making up my mind, I quickly walk t
ZADE. Holding back was a task I have been failing at from the very first time I saw her on that battlefield. The moment I gazed into those doe-shaped eyes, even my stone heart was intrigued by my goddess-given mate. Awakened by the hope that the Goddess - whose trust in me was waning - had not for
I walk over to the bathroom door, watching as she washes her face with soap and water frantically, even going as far as to gargle. I turn away, feeling worse than I have in years. What was I expecting? I don’t have much to offer. I’m a man without an education, a man on the run… a man working in a
VALERIE. My heart sinks when I hear his door slam. What have I done? What was I doing? Goddess! I’ve made a mess of things. “Val…” Zaia’s no longer smiling as she observes me. “Are you ok? Did I come at a bad time? I’ll leave if you won’t take offence. I shouldn’t have barged in like this.” He
I kiss her neck, nibbling teasingly on her skin, perfect… smooth… slender… She whimpers, her entire body reacting to my touch as she turns to face me. Our eyes meet, and she blushes as she grips my biceps before running her fingers down them, and then she’s fiddling with the buttons on my shirt, her
SEBASTIANOne moment I’m kissing her, the next I’m on my feet, pulling her with me as I cup her face and deepen that kiss. She tastes… like perfection.I groan, feeling my cock harden in my pants.Fuck, she’s doing things to me that no one else ever could.“Shall we get out of here?” I whisper. Her
ZAIAHe dropped me off last night promising to call me, but the day has come and gone and nothing. Maybe he realised I wasn’t suited for him.“Zaia, what is wrong with you, dear?” Mom scolds me.I look up from where I realise I’ve overpoured the juice in my glass. “Oh, I’m so sorry!” I exclaim as I
ZAIAThe weather is awful tonight, but there’s no one to pick me up. I tried to call Mom, but I couldn’t get through to her. The traffic is so bad I wasn’t able to get a taxi in this rain either, so I decided to return home on foot. I was at least able to message Mom to let her know I’m on my way ba
The rain begins pouring down as Annalise continues to drink the bottle she’s brought along. She’s pretty drunk, her words are slurring as she chatters on about something I have no interest in.The traffic is a nightmare, endless streams of red taillights stretching far ahead. I grit my teeth, wishin

“What’s wrong?” I ask sharply, closing the door behind me, surprised when Zaia lifts the trail of my dress so it doesn’t touch the bathroom floor. Neither of us exchanges a word as we look at Valerie, who is battling with herself. “Oh, I don’t know. Never mind. Let’s get back to our men.” She trie
